Hi all, I'm on this thread because I'm just considering buying a Murano, your comments are helpful but please does anyone has any further advise for me regarding my choice of buying one?
Thanks all
I have just imported one from us to sell.. 2006 no issue and is very cheap call me 08030744465

I have a Nissan Murano 2005 Model, its giving me a hell of problems. When the ignition is turned on, it refuses to raise while you throttle it. Its been scanned and its showing TP Sensor/circuit and Power/ Circuit. I've tried changing the injector mouth severally but to no avail, Some mechanics are talking about changing the gearbox, does the raising of the engine has anything to do with the gearbox? Its killing Me slowly, please help a brother. Even any Link to any better Electrician(expert)

You already got an idea where the trouble is coming from have you tried cleaning the TP Sensor?
PS; Arrest those talking gearbox, they are yahoo MEchanics
when buying the TP Sensor make sure you buy a brand new one! TP Means throttle Position

How can I be Sure that the problem will be solved by buying a brand New TP Sensor? Cause once the seal is broken U cannot send it back to the seller.

The VIN indicates you have a 2006 model. Either the accelerator pedal or throttle body is faulty. Proceed by addressing (changing) the accelerator pedal first.
Don't clean the throttle body.

You mean that maybe the scanner/ECU is telling lies ?

Nothing new under the sun

You should go back to those mechanics who suggested the gearbox change. Seems they understand the real issue you have better than the scanner

You have to rectify what the scanner is popping up and move from there. If you had another murano owner of same year you could do a swap and see if that solves the issue be for going to buy a new replacement.

It's not your gearbox as those two in these circumstances are unrelated.

Sent you a mail though. You could call me. I use a murano as well. 2004 though.

I will advice that you don't start throwing parts based on scan DTC ,it is a pure electrical issue probably a short circuit that need further probing ,we can help you with the fix if you can if you book appointment with us at autologic.
The reason are suggesting change of transmission is that they know from experience that TPS has something to do with the transmission but cannot really explain how ,so it as well be a fatal mistake to go ahead with such terrible advice of change of transmission

I said that from personal experience.

I did a changed of tps in (1), but nothing changed, not until I had a change of Ecu and my rev'd up asap

In case no (2) traveled for over a month, came back car wasn't raising, had to do many restarts and after several restarts, engine picks and when I try to engage gear, it cuts out engine power again, more like putting the car on limp mode, checked gear oil and it was low. Changing oil solved issue.

Did you have the same error codes as the ones under reference?
I wonder where this "tps" is located or what it looks like.

Tps is your throttle pedal position sensor.. "the accelerator pedal" which you put your foot on.

There is a sensor attached to the pedal which communicates the pedal position to the ecu for efficient air and fuel mixture input into the engine.

Nice. Yes, the pedal has a sensor called Accelerator Pedal Sensor. The Throttle Position Sensor is different from the APP sensor and is an integral component of the Throttle Body. In this case either of the two is the issue, though I strongly suspect the APP sensor. If you take a closer (zoom) look at the snapshot of the codes posted, perhaps the first in this list has been partially elided. It's P2138-APP Sensor. If it's faulty, then you'd also have TPS (throttle body) codes because the ECM makes them work together.

If your car is more than 10 years Old your TP sensor is due for a change in the 1st place. Some sensors in ur car need to change B4 they put you down.You can test the sensor to see if it works, You need an electrician with a good multimeter to do this.

Tell him to delete the codes and re-scan.
As I said, the throttle body is also a possibility.

Some mechanics can change the gear box to that of another Nissan SUV.
I've done it and i'm still using it. Of course its not as smooth as it used to be when the original gear box was there; but like they say half bread is better than none.

if he likes he should change 1 billion TPS that thing no go work.
scan data says the computer is seeing a fault with the TPS and APP sensor "circuit". problem is either in the wiring or connectors.
like autologic said, it could be a short circuit, an open circuit etc.
OP get a competent tech to diagnose the wiring for you. thats most likely where your problem lies.
if that is certified to be good then proceed to the ECU... there might be a problem on the power side of those circuits from the computer.
areas to focus on
1. APPS sensor, circuit and connector
2. TPS sensor, circuit and connector
3. electric throttle control actuator circuit and connector

also ensure U perform a relearn everytime you disconnect the APPS, TPS or ETCA

If you have seen the factory service manual of this vehicle for example you will realize that "circuit" need not necessarily have to be the cause of the present issue. The throttle body could just simply go bad and the same codes of "circuit" will appear. Most times too circuits go bad when they have been disturbed by hands. If the OP's vehicle had not been worked before the present issue circuits might not come into play.
You too have mentioned TPS. Could you tell us the location?

its impossible to give a definite solution remotely. my response is based purely on most likely causes of this fault according to manufacturer repair information.
however my money is on diagnosing the circuit first.
as a tech U dont expect me to just start changing parts without first knowing the state of the electrical circuit upon which the component works.
after that then i diagnose the components involved being the sensor and the ECU. thats my personal opinion on my thought
process.
now checking the wiring diagram for that circuit the TPS shares the same reference voltage with 3 or 4 other sensors. if ome of them is shorted to power or ground it will surely affect the rest lioe the TPS in this instance. this is why i still insist on verifying if the circuit is working as it should before changing any parts.

to your question, the TPS is attached the electric throttle actuator also called the throttle body. a quick check on google will surely help U with the location.
